According to an embodiment of the present, to improve arithmetic speed, before the hot spot marginal point for extracting iris image, It further comprises the steps of: and original iris image (that is, iris image collected) is compressed and is filtered.Optionally, when The pixel number of original iris image is greater than maximum pixel number, and (in one embodiment, maximum pixel number takes 60000, but is not limited to This, can be adjusted according to application scenarios and demand) when, just original iris image is compressed, obtains compressed image. Then, compressed image is filtered, typical compression method such as mean value is compressed, and typical filtering method such as Gauss filters Wave, but the embodiment of the present invention is without limitation, any known or following known compression of images and filtering method, can be with It is combined with the embodiment of the present invention, with implementation method 300.
Then, to the iris image after compression and filtering processing carry out following four steps processing (it is to be appreciated that if It is that following four steps directly then are carried out to original iris image it is not necessary that original iris image is compressed and is filtered Rapid processing, for convenient for statement, collectively referred to hereinafter as iris image), to extract glossing up marginal point.
The first step calculates the gradient of iris image.
According to a kind of embodiment, for each pixel in iris image, it is calculated in the x direction and the y direction (that is, water Square to and vertical direction) on gradient value, then obtain the gradient of the pixel.All pixels are traversed, rainbow has just been obtained The gradient of film image.Various gradient operators can be used for the calculating of image gradient, such as Sobel operator, Robert operator, drawn General Laplacian operater etc..

GradV=img (i-1, j-1)+img (i-1, j) * 2+img (i-1, j+1)-img (i+1, j-1)
-img(i+1,j)*2-img(i+1,j+1)
GradH=img (i-1, j-1)+img (i, j-1) * 2+img (i+1, j-1)-img (i-1, j+1)
-img(i,j+1)*2-img(i+1,j+1)
Second step extracts the marginal point in iris image according to the counted gradient of institute.
According to an embodiment of the invention, in this step, by the local direction for calculating edge in estimation iris image (that is, direction of gradient), then finds the maximum value of partial gradient value using gradient direction, and the side of iris image is determined with this Edge point.The detailed process according to an embodiment of the invention for executing this step is given below.
Firstly, calculating each pixel in iris image according to the gradient value of each pixel calculated in previous step Gradient direction.Specifically, the gradient value according to each pixel in the x-direction and the z-direction, calculates the gradient side of the pixel To.In one embodiment, the gradient direction pGradOritation of pixel (i, j) can be calculated according to the following formula (i, j):
Then, based on the gradient direction of pixel, the greatest gradient of the pixel is determined.In a reality according to the present invention It applies in example, the gradient direction of pixel is divided into 4 sections, when which section the gradient direction of pixel belong to, just press The greatest gradient of the pixel is calculated according to the mode in the section.For example, the maximum ladder of pixel (i, j) is calculated as follows Spend MAXGrad.
In above formula, maxGradTH is configuration parameter, and optionally, value is set as 100.Function max (a, b, c) expression takes a, Maximum value in b, c three.
Finally, the greatest gradient based on pixel, extracts the marginal point of iris image.
In one embodiment, the size relation of the gradient value of the greatest gradient based on pixel and the pixel is come true Whether the fixed pixel is marginal point.Specifically, if the gradient value of pixel is greater than the greatest gradient of the pixel, it is determined that should Pixel is marginal point;If the gradient value of pixel is not more than the greatest gradient of the pixel, it is determined that the pixel is not side Edge point.It is alternatively possible to according to the size relation of above-mentioned greatest gradient and gradient value, binary map is generated, is extracted to characterize Marginal point.The process for generating binary map can be indicated by following formula:
In above formula, pGradMask (i, j) is the pixel value of pixel (i, j) in binary map, and pGradient (i, j) is The gradient value of pixel (i, j), MAXGrad are the greatest gradient of pixel (i, j).
So far, extracted marginal point just contains the pixel on the profiles such as eyes, iris, hot spot.In the case where connecing In the third step come, according to the grey scale change of extracted marginal point, candidate marginal is selected from marginal point.
According to a kind of embodiment, the grey scale change of marginal point four direction is first calculated;Determine the absolute value of grey scale change most Big direction;On the direction of maximum absolute value, candidate marginal is determined from marginal point.
It is further elaborated especially by following formula.
If the coordinate of marginal point is (i, j), iris image is denoted as small_img, with small_img (i, j) representative edge The gray value of edge point (i, j) calculates each marginal point in iris image and becomes in the gray scale of four direction according to such as next group of formula Change, be denoted as a, b, c, d respectively:
A=small_img (i-1, j-1)-small_img (i+1, j+1)
B=small_img (i, j-1)-small_img (i, j+1)
C=small_img (i-1, j+1)-small_img (i+1, j-1)
D=small_img (i-1, j)-small_img (i+1, j)
A, b, c are calculated separately, the absolute value of d is denoted as respectively: abs (a), abs (b), abs (c), abs (d).Determine this The value of maximum absolute value in 4 absolute values is denoted as max, and determines the corresponding direction (serial number N) of max.For example, if max= Abs (a), then N=1;If max=abs (b), N=2;If max=abs (c), N=3;If max=abs (d), N=4.
If marginal point (i, j) is hot spot marginal point, the point on the direction of the maximum absolute value of grey scale change, in hot spot Pixel value is big, and the point pixel value outside hot spot is small.Accordingly, if on the direction of maximum absolute value, two of the two sides marginal point (i, j) Pixel is big or small simultaneously simultaneously, it is determined that the marginal point is not hot spot marginal point.That is, in the side of maximum absolute value Upwards, candidate marginal is determined from marginal point.
Continue example as above, calculates the mean value of the gray value of all pixels point in iris image, be denoted as meanimg.For every A marginal point (i, j), determines whether it is candidate marginal according to following process.
If N=1, when marginal point (i, j) meets following conditions, determine that marginal point (i, j) is candidate marginal:
Small_img (i-1, j-1)<meanimgandsmall_img ( i+1,j+1 )>meanimg, or
Small_img (i-1, j-1)>meanimg and small_img (i+1, j+1)<meanimg.
If N=2, when marginal point (i, j) meets following conditions, determine that marginal point (i, j) is candidate marginal:
Small_img (i, j-1)<meanimgandsmall_img ( i,j+1 )>meanimg, or
Small_img (i, j-1)>meanimg and small_img (i, j+1)<meanimg.
If N=3, when marginal point (i, j) meets following conditions, determine that marginal point (i, j) is candidate marginal:
Small_img (i-1, j+1)<meanimgandsmall_img ( i+1,j-1 )>meanimg, or
Small_img (i-1, j+1)>meanimg and small_img (i+1, j-1)<meanimg.
If N=4, when marginal point (i, j) meets following conditions, determine that marginal point (i, j) is candidate marginal:
Small_img (i-1, j)<meanimgandsmall_img ( i+1,j )>meanimg, or
Small_img (i-1, j)>meanimg and small_img (i+1, j)<meanimg.
4th step screens glossing up marginal point according to the coordinate of candidate marginal from candidate marginal.
The process of screening hot spot marginal point according to an embodiment of the present invention described below.
(1) by calculating the average value of the coordinate of all candidate marginals, center point coordinate is generated.
If the coordinate of candidate marginal is (xi,yi), i=1,2...n, wherein n indicates the number of candidate marginal, then, The average value of the coordinate of candidate marginal can be calculated by following formula:
That is, center point coordinate is (meanX, meanY).
(2) pass through the distance value D of calculating each candidate marginal and central pointi, the average value of all distance values is generated, as Apart from mean value meanD.
D can be calculated by following formulai:
In above formula, (xi,yi) indicate candidate marginal coordinate, (meanX, meanY) indicate center point coordinate.
(3) by the way that selected distance value is no more than the marginal point apart from mean value from candidate marginal, to determine new candidate Marginal point.That is, deleting D from candidate marginaliThe point of > meanD, using candidate marginal remaining after deletion as new time Select marginal point.
(4) by calculating the variance of the distance value of new candidate marginal, to determine glossing up marginal point.
About the calculating of variance, details are not described herein again, and the variance of the distance value of new candidate marginal is denoted as stdD.
If variance stdD be less than predetermined value (optionally, predetermined value takes 3, but not limited to this, can rule of thumb and application scenarios The suitable value of setting), then using new candidate marginal as hot spot marginal point.
If variance stdD is not less than predetermined value, to new candidate marginal, repeat above-mentioned generation center point coordinate and away from The step of from mean value and determining new candidate marginal and calculating variance (that is, (1)~(4) that repeat the above steps), Zhi Daosuo Counted variance is less than predetermined value, using identified new candidate marginal as hot spot marginal point.
In another embodiment, can also repeat the above steps (1)~(3), until the quantity of new candidate marginal Until no longer reducing, will it is final determined by new candidate marginal as hot spot marginal point.
Such as Fig. 4 A and Fig. 4 B, respectively illustrate according to an embodiment of the invention comprising candidate marginal and comprising hot spot The iris image of marginal point.As can be seen that in Figure 4 A, most of candidate marginal is the wheel on the hot spot in pupil center Wide, there are also small part candidate marginals to be scattered on sclera (canthus part in such as Fig. 4 A);And in figure 4b, it is scattered in sclera On marginal point it is deleted.
Then, in step s 320, ellipse fitting is carried out to hot spot marginal point, to obtain the ellipse of at least one fitting.
The basic ideas of ellipse fitting are: for giving one group of sample point in plane, finding an ellipse, it is made to the greatest extent may be used It can be close to these sample points.Specific method about ellipse fitting is not developed in details herein, and those skilled in the art can be used Such as the methods of least square method to carry out ellipse fitting to hot spot marginal point.
In one embodiment, according to the connected relation of hot spot marginal point, hot spot marginal point is divided into two hot spots.About Connected relation between pixel can be described by pixel path.Assuming that being the pixel of (x, y) from coordinate in set of pixels T P is to the access for the pixel q that coordinate is (s, t), and the sequence being made of a series of specific pixel, coordinate is successively are as follows: (x, Y), (x1, y1) ..., (s, t), and two adjacent pixels are adjacent.In this case, just from pixel p to pixel q Form a pixel path.If there was only a pixel path in set of pixels T, then, pixel p is exactly to be connected in S with q.
Generally, hot spot marginal point can be divided into two hot spots in left and right.
Then, the two hot spots are fitted to ellipse respectively.The ellipse that fitting obtains is denoted as: Ax2+Bxy+Cy2+Dx+Ey + F=0.
As Fig. 5 shows the partial schematic diagram according to an embodiment of the invention for fitting elliptical iris image.Fig. 5 In, two white border circular areas indicate hot spots, and what is depicted in hot spot with black curve is exactly that the two hot spots are corresponding The ellipse of fitting.
Then, in step S330, oval according to fitting calculates fitting parameter.In an embodiment according to the present invention, Fitting parameter includes: the distance between each elliptical area, eccentricity and two ellipses.It is described below to calculate above-mentioned fitting ginseng Several processes.
